CABINET cHAHaIs.

On Tuesday the President sent the
following nominations to the Senate:
Lucius @. c. Lamar Of Mississippi to
be associate justice Of the Supreme
Court of the United States.
William Villas Of Wisconsin to he
Secretary of the Interior.
Don. NJ. Dickinson of Michigan to
be Postmaster General.
Charles s. Fairchild of New York to
be Secretary Of the Treasury.
Georye L. Rives of New York to be
Assistant Secretary Of State.
Isaac H. Maynard of New York Il
be assistant secretary of treasury.
Sigourney Butler Of Massachusetts
to be second comptroller Of the treas
ury.
James w. Hyatt of Connecticut "a
be treasurer of the United States.
With the exception of the :firs'
named, all the nominations above
made are, so far rs appears, entirely
fit and will doubtless be approved
without objection. The nomination o
L. @. c. Lamar, however, to plac'
on the Supreme bench, is one tha'
should meet with q. prompt and EN-
phatic protest on the part Of every
loyal man. Mr.. Lamar left his seat IL
Congress, and joined the Confederate
army because he thought the duty he
owed to Mississippi was greater thar
that he owed to the United States
For four years he fought to destroy tn
government which he had sworn Il
uphold and defend. After the war h
opposed and denounced as "uncons IL
tutional, revolutionary and void" all
the reconstruction measures. Only
three years ago, from his seat In thu
Senate, he declared that no man should
call Jefferson Davis traitor in hi
presence without meeting q sterl
denial. Shall a man with such .
record be made one of the Suprem,
Judges of the constitution and tn,
laws? Would not the precedent be ,
dangerous one?

PROHIBITION SUSTAINED.

The Kansas prohibition law has
stood the last test and comes out vic
torious, the Supreme Court having de-
clared it to be constitutional. The
case taken before the Court was that of
the Atchison brewer, Mugler. who
sued the State Of Kansas for damage
claimed to have been inflicted upon
HE property by the prohibitory law.
Mugler's attorneys argued that the
law, in prohibiting him from man
ufacturing liquor either for his own
use or for export storage, violated
the fourteenth amendment of the con-
stitution which provides that "no
State shall make or enforce any law
which shall abridge the privileges or
immunities of citizens of the United
States, nor shall any State deprive
any person of life, liberty or property
without due process of law"
In a long opinion the Court refutes
this argument and holds that as the
law is designed for the protection of
the people from what everyone &C
knowledgee is great evil 1t does not
interfere with any of the rights which
the 18th amendment is intended to
protect.
The claim that the prohibition Of the
manufacture and sale Of liquor depriv-
es liquor dealers of their property with.
out due process of law, the Court dis
poses of most effectually as follows:
"All property under the American
form of government is subject to the
obligation that it shall be used 90 as
not to injuriously effect the rights of
the community and thereby become
nuisance. The State of Kansas had .
right to prohibit the liquor traffic. It
did not thereby take away the prop
erty of the brewers. It simply abated
nuisance. The property is not taken
away from its owners; they are only
prohibited from using it for q specific
purpose which the legislature declared
to be injurious to the community"
The entire opinion makes interesting
reading but we have not room for it.
Suffice it to say that it sustains the
law in every particular and thus drives
another nail in the coffin of the whisky
traffic.
